@ladyarchangel74 I received a response from one of Wattpad's support teams and it's a positive one, so you can mark your stories as "Ongoing" if it's not yet done.
From Gabby, she replied "This message was to prompt writers to consider if they'd like to leave their work published and ongoing if they are not planning on further updating it. We understand everyone has their own reasons for updating. Not everyone knows of the systems and benefits, and not everyone knows they can mark their story complete, so we want everyone to have that information and decide. The idea is that whenever you're ready, you can always come back to a story or, if you want to alleviate some pressure of knowing a story won't be updated while you're busy, you can unpublish it, putting it in draft until you're ready to resume. When you publish it again, the reads will remain."
